IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

FOR USE OF THE IMPACT WRENCH

WARNING: Death or serious bodily injury could result from improper or unsafe use

of the impact wrench. To avoid these risks, follow these basic safety

instructions:

1. When working in high places, check there is nobody below. During operation, take care

not to catch or tighten the cord accidentally.

2. Use the earplugs if using for a long time use.

3. Switch the reversing switch only after the motor is stopped when it is necessary to change

the direction of the rotation.

4. Use a step up transformer when a long extension cable is used.

5. Confirm the tightening torque by a torque wrench before use in order to ascertain the

correct tightening torque to be used.

6. Attach the hex. socket securely onto the anvil. If the hex. socket is insufficiently secured,

it may drop out and cause an accident. For hex. socket attachment refer to "PRIOR TO

OPERATION" on page 13.

7. Confirm whether the socket has any crack in it.

REPLACEMENT PARTS

When servicing use only identical replacement parts.

Repairs should be conducted only by a Hitachi authorized service center.

POLARIZED PLUGS

To reduce the risk of electrick shock, this equipment has a polarized plug (one blade is wider

than the other).

This plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug.

If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician to install the proper outlet.

Do not change the plug in any way.

English

8

USE OF EXTENSION CORD

Make sure your extension cord is in good condition. When using an extension cord, be sure

to use one heavy enough to carry the current your product will draw.

An undersized cord will cause a drop in line voltage resulting in loss of power and

overheating. Table shows the correct size to use depending on cord length and nameplate

ampere rating. If in doubt, use the next heavier gage. The smaller the gage number, the

heavier the cord.

DOUBLE INSULATION FOR SAFER OPERATION

To ensure safer operation of this power tool, HITACHI has adopted a double insulation

design. “Double insulation “ means that two physically separated insulation systems have

been used to insulate the electrically conductive materials connected to the power supply

from the outer frame handled by the operator. Therefore, either the symbol “

” or the words

and “Double insulation” appear on the power tool or on the nameplate.

Although this system has no external grounding, you must still follow the normal electrical

safety precautions given in this Instruction Manual, including not using the power tool in wet

environments.

To keep the double insulation system effective, follow these precautions:

䡬 Only HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER should disassemble or assemble this

power tool, and only genuine HITACHI replacement parts should be installed.

䡬 Clean the exterior of the power tool only with a soft cloth moistened with soapy water,

and dry thoroughly.

Never use solvents, gasoline or thinners on plastic components; otherwise the plastic

may dissolve.

2. Extension bar : Code No. 873633 (WH14, WH16) Code No. 874535 (WH22)

The extension bar is convenient for working in very restricted spaces or when the socket

provided cannot reach the bolt to be tightened.

CAUTION:

When the extension bar is used the tightening torque is reduced slightly compared with

the ordinary socket. So it is necessary to operate the tool a little longer to get the same

torque.

3. Universal joint : Code No. 955135 (WH14) Code No. 955088 (WH22)

The universal joint is convenient for impacting nuts when there is an angle between the

socket and wrench, or when working in a very narrow space.

4. Corner attachment (Model EW-14R) (WH14, WH16)

Use this attachment only when the machine is applied to the nut or bolt at a right angle.

English

13

PRIOR TO OPERATION

1. Power source

Ensure that the power source to be utilized conforms to the power source requirements

specified on the product nameplate.

2. Power switch

Ensure that the switch is in the OFF position. If the plug is connected to a receptacle while

the switch is in the ON position, the power tool will start operating immediately and can

cause serious injury.

3. Extension cord

When the work area is far away from the power source, use an extension cord of sufficient

thickness and rated capacity. The extension cord should be kept as short as practicable.

WARNING: Damaged cord must be replaced or repaired.

4. Check the receptacle

If the receptacle only loosely accepts the plug, the receptacle must be repaired. Contact

a licensed electrician to make appropriate repairs.

If such a fautly receptacle is used, it may cause overheating, resulting in a serious hazard.

5. Confirming condition of the environment:

Confirm that the work site is placed under appropriate conditions conforming to

prescribed precautions.

6. Attacking the side handle

The position of the side handle attached to

the hammer case can be changed by

unscrewing the handle. (Right hand screw)

Turn the handle to the desired position for

the job and secure the handle by screwing

up tight.

7. Mounting the socket

(1) Pin, O-ring type (WH22) (Fig.2)

Select a socket matched to the bolt to be

tightened or loosened. Insert the socket on

the anvil of the wrench, and secure it with

the pin and ring. When removing the socket,

reverse the sequence.

(2) Plunger type (WH14, WH16) (Fig.3)

Align the plunger located in the square

part of the anvil with the hole in the hex.

socket. Then push the plunger, and mount

the hex. socket on the anvil. Check that the

plunger is fully engaged in the hole. When

removing the socket, reverse the sequence.

HOW TO USE

1. Operation of switch (Fig.4)

The switch in this machine functions as a

motor switch and rotational direction

selector switch. When the switch is set to R

indicated on the handle cover, the motor

rotates clockwise to tighten the bolt. When

the switch is set to L, the motor rotates

counterclockwise to loosen the bolt. When

the switch is released, the motor stops.

CAUTION:

Be sure to turn the switch OFF and wait

until the motor completely stops before

changing the direction of wrench

revolution. Switching while the motor is

rotating will result in burning the motor.

2. Tightening and loosening bolts

A hex. socket matching the bolt or nut must first be selected. Then mount the socket on

the anvil, and grip the nut to be tightened with the hex. socket. Holding the wrench in line

with the bolt, press the power switch to impact the nut for several seconds. If the nut is

only loosely fitted to the bolt, the bolt may turn with the nut, therefore preventing proper

tightening. In this case, stop impact on the nut and hold the bolt head with a wrench

before restarting impact, or manually tighten the bolt and nut to prevent them slipping.

OPERATIONAL CAUTIONS

1. Confirm the line voltage (Figs.5, 6, 7,

8 and 9)

The available tightening torque is

influenced by line voltage. Reduced line

voltage lowers the available tightening

torque.

For example, if you use a 115 V type wrench

on a 105 V line the available tightening

torque will be reduced to 70 to 90%. When

extending the power cord, use an extension

cord which is as short as possible. When

the line voltage is low and a long extension

cord is needed a step up transfomer should

be used. The relation between the line

voltage and the tightening torque are

shown in the figures.

2. Work at a tightening torque suitable

for the bolt under impact

The optimum tightening torque for nuts

and bolts differs with material and size of

the nuts and bolts. An excessively large

tightening torque for a small bolt may

stretch or break the bolt. The tightening

torque increases proportionally to the

operating time. Use the correct operating

time for the bolt.

3. Selecting the socket to be matched

to the bolt

Be sure to use a socket which is matched to

the bolt to be tightened. Using an improper

socket will result not only in insufficient

tightening but also in damage to the socket

or nut.

A worn or deformed hex. or square-holed

socket will not give an adequate tightness

for fitting to the nut or anvil, consequently

resulting in loss of tightening torque.

Pay attention to wear of socket holes, and

replace before further wear has developes.

Matching socket and bolt sizes are shown

in Tables 1 and 2.

The numerical value of a socket designation

denotes the side-to-side distance (S) of its

hex. hole.

4. Holding the tool

Hold the Impact Wrench firmly with both

hands by the body handle and the side

handle. In this case hold the wrench in line

with the bolt.

It is not necessary to push the wrench very

hard. Hold the wrench with a force just

sufficient to counteract the impact force.

5. Confirm the tightening torque

The following factors contribute to a

reduction of the tightening torque. So

confirm the actual tightening torque

needed by screwing up some bolts before

the job with a hand torque wrench.

Factors affecting the tightening torque are

as follows.

(1) Line voltage:

The tightening torque decreases when the

line voltage becomes low. (See Figs. 5, 6, 7,

8 and 9)

(2) Operating time:

The tightening torque increases when the

operating time increases. But the tightening

torque does not increase above a certain

value even if the tool is driven for a long

time. (See Figs. 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9)

(3) Diameter of bolt:

The tightening torque differs with the

diameter of the bolt as shown in Figs. 5, 6,

7, 8 and 9. Generally a larger diameter bolt

has a larger tightening torque.

(4) Tightening conditions:

The tightening torque differs according to

the torque ratio; class, and length of bolts

even when bolts with the same size threads

are used. The tightening torque also differs

according to the condition of the surface of

metal through which the bolts are to be

tightened.

(5) Using optional parts:

The tightening torque is reduced a little when an extension bar, universal joint or a long

socket is used.

(6) Clearance of the socket:

A worn or deformed hex. or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate tightness to

the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening torque.

Using an improper socket which does not match to the bolt will result in an insufficient

tightening torque. Matching socket and bolt sizes are shown in Tables 1 and 2.

MAINTENANCE AND INSPECTION

WARNING: Be sure to switch power OFF and disconnect the plug from the receptacle

during maintenance and inspection.

1. Inspecting the socket

A worn or deformed hex. or a square-holed socket will not give an adequate tightness to

the fitting between the nut or anvil, consequently resulting in loss of tightening torque.

Pay attention to wear of socket holes periodically, and replace with a new one if needed.

2. Inspecting the mounting screws

Regularly inspect all mounting screws and ensure that they are properly tightened.

Should any of the screws be lossened, retighten them immediately.

WARNING: Using this impact wrench with loosened screws is extremely dangerous.

3. Inspecting the carbon brushes (Fig. 10)

The motor employs carbon brushes which

are consumable parts. Replace the carbon

brush with a new one when it becomes

worn to its wear limit. Always keep carbon

brushes clean and ensure that they slide

freely within the brush holders.

CAUTION : Using this impact wrench with

a carbon brush which is worn

in excess of the wear limit will

damage the motor.

NOTE: Use HITACHI carbon brush number

indicated in Fig. 10.

4. Replacing carbon brushes

To replace carbon brushes, use a slotted

head screwdriver to disassemble the brush

caps after disassembling the cap covers.

Then remove the carbon brushes together

with the spring.

When assembling, reverse the procedure

for disassembling. In this case assemble

the cap covers after screwing up the brush

caps firmly.

SERVICE AND REPAIRS

All quality power tools will eventually require servicing or replacement of parts because of

wear from normal use. To assure that only authorized replacement parts will be used, all

service and repairs must be performed by a HITACHI AUTHORIZED SERVICE CENTER, ONLY.

NOTE:

Specifications are subject to change without any obligation on the part of the HITACHI.
